Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does the board come pre-painted?

It comes with a factory-applied white primer; it is not finished with a topcoat and will require a final layer of paint.

Can I use this in a bathroom?

MDF is not recommended for high-humidity areas; moisture can cause the board to swell or degrade over time.

What is the length of each board?

Each individual board is 4.2 meters in length.

What is the best way to cut these boards?

A miter saw provides the cleanest and most accurate cut for both straight lines and corner angles.

How do I hide the nail holes?

Use a suitable wood filler, allow it to dry, sand it smooth, and then paint over it as part of your final coat.

Is the material solid wood?

No, it is manufactured from high-quality MDF (Medium Density Fibreboard) which is consistent and warp-resistant.

Troubleshooting

Visible gaps at corners

Use decorators' caulk to fill small gaps and touch up with your matching topcoat paint.

Board seems slightly bowed

MDF is flexible; use a strong grab adhesive and pins to pull the board flush against the wall during installation.

Paint not adhering to the primer

Lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper (240 grit) to create a mechanical key before repainting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ready-to-paint white primed finish saves prep time
  • Versatile design suitable for modern and traditional interiors
  • High-quality MDF offers superior durability
  • Long 4.2-meter lengths reduce joint lines
  • Effectively hides the unsightly gap between floors and walls

Cons

  • Requires a final topcoat application for a complete look
  • MDF is not suitable for high-moisture areas like wet rooms
  • Requires standard woodworking tools for cutting and mitering

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be carried out using standard wood-grade adhesives or concealed nail fixing. Ensure the walls are dry and free of debris before mounting the boards. For corners, use a sharp miter saw to ensure precise 45-degree cuts for tight joints. Regarding care, the MDF material is stable but should be kept away from excessive dampness or direct water contact. Regular cleaning can be done with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth. Always ensure the edges are sealed with paint or decorators' caulk to prevent moisture ingress into the MDF core.
